Yeah, not sure I get it either...

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

"Hawkman v. Creepy Kid From The 'Burbs" also would have worked.

[soupcan]

'Hawkman' is good though

Referring to the hair on Halladay's frequently unshaven face. Americans have never taken to using the term 'ginger' for fair/reddish hair the way Brits and other assorted parts of that empire have long done.

[G-Fafif]

The Halladay clan gathers in the stands.

[Frayed Knot]

Wouldn't be complete without a photo of Ginger Baker

[Benjamin Grimm]

The first Ginger that I think of is Ginger Grant:


Followed by... Ginger Rogers.

[G-Fafif]

Reed's: More than a replacement soda.

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

I'm just hoping we send him "back to the rows" a few times.

It's weird how much ofa swing game this feels like in April. There's probably a fairly large gap in fan reception if they open at home 4-2 after beating Halladay versus merely 3-3.

[Gwreck]

Bad guys:
Shane Victorino CF
Placido Polanco 3B
Jimmy Rollins SS
Ryan Howard 1B
Ben Francisco RF
Raul Ibanez LF
Carlos Ruiz C
Wilson Valdez 2B
Roy Halladay P

Any illegitimate radio streams trickling down through the internet?

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

I brought two hot dogs for late lunch, and am drinking out of a Premio cup. Also, I'll no doubt be cursing myself in my head at some point during the game today for being a Mets fan. Voila: Citizens Bank Field at Office Park!

Depending on how the game goes, I may ask my evening supervisor to throw some soda cups at me and boo me on my way out of the office.

Leadoff single for Jose (again). Maybe we get him home this time.

[G-Fafif]

Halladay fails to replicate perfect game. Gawd, he sucks.

[TransMonk]

Pitcher's best friend then a K...great job, Jon!

[Gwreck]

Jimmy down swinging and so far Niese is just as good as Halladay.
